My blog for rants and observations about politics, especially Australian politics. Pet peeves include corruption in politics, science and medicine and the aggressive promotion of psychiatry. I've often wondered why it appears that scum rise to the top and smartest, most honest people leave or are marginalized. I'm also peeved about the victimization of asylum-seekers by the Australian govt. and the parlous state of federal politics in general.

Don't lecture me, Rupert!

Does the phone hacking scandal mean that the listeners of a publicly-funded Australian radio station will never again be presented with programming in which a disreputable media baron lectures everyone about how to live our lives?
